gesondheid in die provinsie, nog nie een COVID-19-pasi\u00ebnt gehad nie. <\/p>\n<p>Dit terwyl die Sarah Baartman-distriksmunisipaliteit, waaronder Kouga val, saam met die aangrensende Nelson Mandelabaai-metro tans as die provinsie se brandpunte vir die koronavirus beskou word.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Zweli Mkhize, minister van gesondheid, het Vrydag n\u00e1 \u2019n twee dae lange besoek aan die Nelson Mandelabaai-metro ges\u00ea die hospitale beskik oor genoeg beddens, maar ges\u00ea \u2019n bottelnek word ervaar met pasi\u00ebnte wat opgeneem word terwyl hulle wag op hul uitslae en gemaan dat uitslae gouer beskikbaar gestel moet word.<\/p>\n<p>Cowley het in \u2019n verklaring ges\u00ea die Humansdorp-hospitaal moet pasi\u00ebnte wat nog op hul toetsuitslag wag, asook bevestigde COVID-19-pasi\u00ebnte, uit desperaatheid vir plek in ander hospitaalsale plaas, terwyl die ongebruikte veldhospitaal \u2019n wit olifant is.<\/p>\n<p>Hoewel die veldhospitaal vir alle praktiese doeleindes in Junie voltooi is, s\u00ea Cowley \u2019n onlangse besoek het swak vakmanskap van die struktuur onthul, met geen beddens in vier sale of suurstofpunte beskikbaar nie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMet die wete dat \u2019n tweede vlaag van die pandemie onvermydelik is, het die gesondheidsdepartement die afgelope vyf maande niks gedoen om te verseker hierdie gerief kom in bedryf om
